Documentum Administrator is the Web-based tool for administering Content Server. By Documentum Administrator all the administrative tasks for a single installation or a distributed enterprise can be performed from one location.

One of the administrative tasks of Documentum Administrator is User Management. To access a Docbase, a person must be defined as a user in that Docbase.

The Administration/User Management displays a list of users in the current Docbase. Search for users can be done by their user name in the Docbase, user OS name (name on the operating system), or default group.

How to locate users in Docbase

1. Connect to the Docbase where we want to locate a particular user.

2. In the left-hand pane, click Administration.

3. Click User Management.

4. Click Users.

5. To search by user name, user OS name, or default group, type in the information and click Go

How to create new users

One must have Sysadmin or Superuser privileges to create users.

1. Connect to the Docbase where we want to create new users.

2. Click Administration –> User Management.

3. Click File –>New –> User. (Check Right Hand Side)

4. Indicate whether the user’s state is active or inactive. An active user can connect to a

Docbase whereas an inactive user cannot.

5. In the Name field, type the user’s name.

6. Select a User Source from the drop-down list.

UNIX Only: Select this for the default UNIX user authentication.

Domain Only: Select this if the Docbase has Windows domain authentication enabled and the user must be authenticated against a domain.

UNIX first: Select this if the Docbase has Windows domain authentication enabled and the user must be authenticated first against UNIX, then against a domain.

Domain First: Select this if the Docbase has Windows domain authentication enabled and the user must be authenticated first against a domain, then against UNIX.

LDAP: Select this if users are authenticated against an LDAP server.

7. In the E-Mail Address field, type the user’s email address. This is the address to which

notifications are sent for workflow tasks and registered events.

8. In the User OS Name field, type the user’s operating system user name. This is used by the

user to login to the docbase.

9. In the Windows Domain field, type the user’s Windows domain.

10. Select a home Docbase for the user.

11. Designate the user’s default folder which is the default storage place for any object the user creates. To use an existing Docbase folder, click Choose existing folder and to create a folder with the user’s name, click Choose/Create folder with user name.

12. Click Select Group and select a default group for the user.

13. Click Select Permission Set and select a default permission set for the user.

14. Select the user’s privileges from the drop-down list.

User privileges authorize certain users to perform activities that are required to administer and maintain the system. The privilege levels are:

None

Create Type

Create Cabinet

Create Cabinet and Type

Create Group

Create Group and Type

Create Group and Cabinet

Create Group, Cabinet, and Type

System Administrator

Superuser

15. Select the user’s client capability from the drop-down list.

There are four types of users:

Consumer

Contributor

Coordinator

System Administrator

16. Click Finish and new user is created.

How to delete users

We can remove users from the Docbase, but Documentum strongly recommends making users inactive rather than deleting them from the Docbase.

When a user is deleted, the server does not remove the user’s name from objects in the Docbase such as groups and ACLs. Thus when we delete a user, we must also remove or change all references to that user in objects in the Docbase.

ARBITRARY

In addition to reliability, here are 5 reasons why WordPress is the best platform for any
online business:

1. Free. If you have never heard about open source software, you might be wondering why something as great as WordPress is free. WordPress is free because it has been developed by a worldwide community of developers, who do it as a hobby and because they love the open source spirit. Not only WordPress itself is free but also most of its themes and plugins are free, which means that you can create a really rocking site for free.
2. Easy to use. Ease of use is another reason why WordPress is a great choice for an online platform. This means that someone with little experience will be able to deal with WordPress with no or just a little help from the pros.
3. Secure. As far as online business is concerned, security is of the greatest importance. If your platform is insecure, this is a threat to everything you do and you just can’t afford to go for an insecure platform. Fortunately, in regards to security, WordPress tops the list. It is true that there is no unhackable software and nobody can guarantee you that even with the most stringent security measures your WordPress site will never be hacked but it does make a difference whether you install a security fortress or an easy target for a beginner hacker.
4. Highly customizable. You will certainly want your online platform to have a unique look. With WordPress this is easy to achieve. There are thousands of themes you can choose from and thousands of plugins to add in order to get exactly the functionality you need. If you are a web designer and/or web developer, you can also use existing themes and plugins and modify them exactly to your liking. Not many other CMS offer such customization freedom!
5. Great community. Last, but not least, another reason why WordPress is such a great online platform is its community. The forums at WordPress.org and the other WordPress-related sites contain tons of threads about everything WordPress-related. Additionally, almost always when you are stuck with a problem and ask for help, knowledgeable and skillful WordPress gurus rush to your help. The WordPress community is simply great and you should experience it yourself.

WordPress is a top CMS. It is easy to start using, yet it is powerful and you can build your site exactly the way you dreamed it. If you have never tried WordPress, get it today and try it out. Just don’t forget to browse through wordpress hosting guides to see which WordPress hosts that are worth dealing with and which aren’t. WordPress is reliable and secure but a poor web host is more than it can stand, so don’t take any chances.
